taba prabhu riinha sameta nahåe, bibidha dåna mahidevanhi påe.
harai cale muni bæ≈da sahåyå, begi bideha nagara niaråyå.2.
pura ramyatå råma jaba dekh∂, harae anuja sameta bise∂.
båp∂° kµupa sarita sara nånå, salila sudhåsama mani sopånå.3.
gu≈jata ma≈ju matta rasa bhæ≈gå, kµujata kala bahubarana biha≈gå.
barana barana bikase bana jåtå, tribidha sam∂ra sadå sukhadåtå.4.
›r∂ Råma and Lakmaƒa accompanied the sage and reached the bank of the
Ga∆gå, the stream of which purifies the whole universe. The son of Gådhi, Vi‹våmitra,
related the whole legend how the celestial stream had come down upon earth. The Lord
then performed His ablutions with all the sages, and the Bråhmaƒas received gifts of
various kinds. Accompanied by a troop of hermits the Lord gladly proceeded further and
quickly drew near to the capital of the Videhas, Mithilå. When ›r∂ Råma beheld the
beauty of the city, He as well as His younger brother were much delighted. There were
many big and small wells, rivers and tanks with water as sweet as nectar and reached
by flights of steps made of jewels. Bees, drunk with honey, made a sweet humming
sound and birds of various hues softly cooed. Lotuses of different colours opened their
petals; while a cool, soft and fragrant breeze ever delighted the soul. (1ó4)

The beauty of the city surpassed description; every inch of it was soul-captivating.
